It is 2012 alright, buzz. And the buzzword is "you don't have to take responsibility for your actions, you can blame someone else (and probably sue them, too). What happened to investing the time necessary to learn all you can about how to identify potential problems with something before you buy it? No, today it is popular to blame someone else when something goes wrong that you should have had the foresight to see yourself.
As in, learning for yourself what could be wrong with a gun that would make it potentially unsafe. Much easier to transfer the personal responsibility to an agency, and let them make the decisions for you isn't it? Except that the personal pride that comes from having the power of knowledge is not there.
Pay somebody else to do it. Today's byline.
